Cookware
Requirements
•
Flat bottom and straight sides
•
Tight-fitting lid
•

pan.
Material characteristics
• Aluminum
: An excellent heat conductor. Some types of food may cause the
aluminum to darken. However, anodized aluminum cookware resists staining and
pitting.
• Copper
: An excellent heat conductor but discolors easily.
• Stainless steel
: A slow heat conductor with uneven cooking performance but is
durable, easy to clean, and resists staining.
• Cast-Iron
: A poor conductor but retains heat very well.
• Enamelware
: Heating characteristics depend on the base material.
• Glass
: A slow heat conductor. Use only glass cookware that is specified for range
top cooking or oven use.
Size limitations
CAUTION
•
Do not place a small pan or pot with a
bottom diameter of about 6 inches or less
on the center grate. This cookware may tip
over. Use the rear burners for this small-
sized cookware.
•
Do not use an oversized pan. The burner
flames may spread out, causing damage
nearby.
